👋Let’s welcome Bryan Warren to the Zebra family in today’s New Staff Member Feature! 👨‍🏫Mr. Warren is the new assistant principal at Claremore High School! He’s been working in education since 2008. 👍 A long time ago he decided that he did not want people to put on his headstone that "he made good money". He wanted to make a difference in the world and there is no better way than public education. He choose to come to Claremore because, “I want to work with Dr. Hindenburg. We went to OU together and from the very beginning I could tell he was both a smart and good person. Now that I have spent some time in Claremore with the great people I know I am going to get to be part of an absolutely amazing team.” ‼Some interesting facts about Mr. Warren are that he will be in boots every day, he was a medic in the Army Reserves, he’s completed multiple half marathons and he’s recently taken up woodworking. ♥Some of his hobbies include keeping up with his favorite sports teams, board games, video games, watching movies and shows, collecting/buying/selling/trading sports cards, reading history books and hanging out with friends.
